“Your practice is about the relationships you create.” -Dr. Shawn Knorr
A lot of people aspire to be like Dr. Shawn Knorr. He’s a top-level producer who is always looking for the next level in his career but he wasn’t always the confident, caring clinician he is today.
“The first part of my career was not productive at all,” says Dr. Shawn. “My idea of production was to speed up the treadmill. My team was telling me I was going to lose patients because I was in such a rush that I wasn’t building relationships with them. I went faster and faster and then I reached the point of burnout.”
But then, a personal tragedy changed the trajectory of his life…he rediscovered how deeply he cared for his patients.
Says Dr. Shawn, “Part of my lack of production was that early in my career I was holding back. My treatment care was really safe. I wasn’t comfortable with my fees or treatment plans. I didn’t necessarily believe in the value of my work.”
But then something remarkable happened. He realized that when you care about people more you get over the fear of presenting care.
